    I agree with Dale that a butterfly is already in use, and therefore
    tough to "take over". And I, also, am drawn to the use of a circle
    containing or with something. For this project to actually work in
    the real world, I am convinced that we have to come up with something
    new, or at least not in current use, and pretty simple. It needs to
    be something we can work with in our many, diverse styles. Think of
    the Nike "swoop". It might very well be the most universally
    recognized symbol in the world. It doesn't mean anything-- except
    that now it does. The symbols.com site someone posted a day or two
    ago is full of wonderful little dingbats that have little or no
    current meaning to anyone. The sign at
    http://www.symbols.com/encyclopedia/02/0223.html if turned 90
    degrees, is an abstract butterfly and is made of spirals, a perrenial
    favorite symbol -- that could work. I also really like
    http://www.symbols.com/encyclopedia/42/425.html which suggests a
    sunrise and contains a circle. In any case, this site is, to me
    anyway, a lot of fun. Man, you can find *anything* on the web-- the
    tough part is to think to look for it!
